Well, that's my lot for now (not that it was much)

Am I going to wait up to see the snow arrive as the systems moves East? :lazy:

Been snowing here in south east wales for around 45mins now but although it looks heavyish its not sticking at the moment. It all looks a little too wet. If it got a tad heavier it may though :lazy:

You can get a good idea of where and how much it's snowing in different bits of somerset via the BBC's jamcams :

Some pretty dodgy driving conditions there!

its rainin in devizes wiltshire... this is a let down

You are on the relatively warm side of the front at the moment. The front does seem to be slowing (anyone agree?) and it will stall and eventually slide back south-east, pulling the colder air back down from the north. So your sleet may yet turn back to snow later.

Snowing here heavily still. Amazing.

I'm left totally confused now, esp. after the national Beeb forecast with Darren Bett

I'm convinced it is a live broadcast - so he probably saw the charts & radar & other information no less than 20 mins before going on air...!

Meto released the Wales snow warning just after half 8 this evening....

Completely agree, I only have the met office radar, but if you look at the 2 last half hour intervals, it has not moved any further north. I execpt to see this now start to move ENE slowly through the night.

On a more personal note, I am concered temps may be a little marginal for me in Poole (Only 5 miles inland from the Dorset Coast).

Getting heavier and trying it's very best to settle.

Yes. Snowing heavier now in Stoke Gifford; at last, it's starting to settle. Guess temps have dropped a couple of degrees. Chelt/Glos posse - looking better now! :crazy:

I would say from the direction it's pointing that the traffic coming out of Taunton is not being allowed onto the M5.

EDIT: Scratch that, yes they are. It looked like a gritter/snowplough just went up the slip road though.

No it's pre-recorded. I've watched a programme about them doing it. News 24 have just updated and changed things considerably: a line from north Devon up the M4 corridor incl Salisbury Plain across the Chilterns. To the south of that line mainly wintry mix, but then this will all slide away south-east with cold digging in behind.

Even heavier snow here now - astonishing sight. Dartmoor and Exmoor must be incredible. This is very heavy.
